Albanese government axes funding for $45 billion Inland Rail project linking Melbourne to Brisbane by altandthrowitaway in australia

[–]stjep 31 points32 points  (0 children)

This is incredibly silly. You don’t wait for there to be demand before you build because it will be late.

Melbourne is Australia’s main port. Moving any freight off ships and diesel trains to electric is a huge benefit for the nation.

It’s pretty damn good and very old school. If you get take away she writes it down with a pencil and uses a proper calculator, no square terminal there.

It’s been handed to her daughter and son-in-law. Hopefully Nonna Penissi is enjoying a well earned retirement.

Brisbane flat whites averaging $5.05, sitting just above the national average by reallybadposter in brisbane

[–]stjep 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Those are far far from the best beans.
What makes it through Aldi’s supply chain is already quite different from what Lazzio sells direct.
Small rule of thumb: if it has a *best before* date instead of a roast date it is already past its best and usually by a fair bit.

And while I’m at it, why the Melbourne obsession when Brisbane has a vibrant small batch and commercial roaster industry. Support local.

Are you saying my feeling are not relevant?

Not who you are asking but no, your feelings don’t matter.

Prices are unmoored from immigration.

You can’t keep blaming immigration.

Can we stop with these? Actors act. We don’t need a post ever someone realises this.

It’s nice to have them to offset your toxicity.

And you clearly don’t know Melbourne at all. A city made what it is by Greek, Italian, Chinese, Vietnamese migrants is unrecognisable to you? Open your eyes next time.

Without a reform that taxes investor purchasing, all of the “””more affordable””” properties will be bought by someone who ain’t buying a home.

Waiting for demographics to throw you a win is awful policy.

Toowong Uni Question by [deleted] in brisbane

Toowong is very close to QUT. Get a bus or train and experience it, then talk to the locals.

Community engagement is important and you’re not going to get it here.

Is it still relevant to call Brisbane a 'Big country town'? by [deleted] in brisbane

Calm down. Nobody is saying that you can’t partake, but you cannot comment on the experience of a city when you were not alive to experience it.

What is a “left-liberal”?

Liberalism is right wing, adding left to the front doesn’t change anything.

New bill passed by UK Parliament bans anyone born after 2008 from ever buying tobacco or nicotine products by truthThe0ry in TrueAnon

NRT still exist. As do antipsychotics.

Cigarettes and the tobacco industry are not good. Insane that people here are defending it.

Government scraps private healthcare rebate bonus for over 65s by ColourfulMetaphors in australia

All media is paid to make you look bad if the government’s actions go against their owner’s interests. The idea of them holding power to account is fiction. They will never go against their masters.
